  • Title: [Human and animal parasitic diseases in the New Hebrides].
    Author: Bourée P, Léon JJ.
    Journal: Bull Soc Pathol Exot Filiales; 1976; 69(2):186-9. PubMed ID: 797480.
    Abstract:
    New-Hebrides Condominium, an archipelago in the South Pacific, is a country with a special socio-political environment, due to the duality of its French-British regime. This state of affairs is felt in all areas including Public Health, where we find French, British and Condominial personnel. The pathology of parasitic diseases is essentially tropical with a strong predominance of paludism, at times fatal, and intestinal nematodes; however we rarely find amibiasis or human hydatid disease. Strongyloidiasis as well as specific ascaris of each species are very frequent in animals. In general cattle is relatively healthy, which is fortunate for a country whose economy is turning more and more to breeding.
